A truly wonderful insight into the amazing wood shops by some of the most talented and skilled craftsmen that exist in your country. Will certainly view all the videos related to the craftsman included here for further inspiration. Thank you so much for providing such an enjoyable and extremely interesting video. Traditional craft and its promotion is so important - so grateful for this contribution and other similar content that you share!!!
Based in England (UK) but aim to be heading your way to realise my cabinet making dreams. Queen Anne style and Federal furniture are of particular interest to me. I have previous traditional fibrous plastering knowledge and am currently completing my second year on a traditional stonemasonry course in Bath which is so interesting and rewarding . In particular it’s fascinating to see, contrast and learn how different crafts tackle related skills in varying ways. Will cross the Atlantic after the conclusion to my masonry course to add to that knowledge in wood!!! Thanks once again for your video posts!!!!
These Gentlemen are not mere wood workers they are true artists. You are all Masters of trade and we lonely mortals are always in awe of what it takes to in vision your creations.
Phil Lowe was a friend and an incredible furniture maker and woodworking teacher. I'm familiar with Elia also. Having graduated from NBSS furniture program myself. This video was a real treat.
While most shops contend with dust and heating issues, mine is in the tropical rainforest of Tobago. The temperature is always between 68 and 88 fahrenheit. I blow all dust out into the surrounding forest, back to where it came from. The local woods, (mahogany, cypress, cedar) are incredible and inexpensive. I'm a lucky man!
I am a antique Horologist who appreciates and loves talented people who do what they love, and use their hands in lockstep with their brain to create original masterpieces. Thank you so much for posting your video, and after doing what I love for 21 years, I know the man who has one clock knows the correct time, the man with two clocks is never really sure! Stay Safe!
Those shops are all great. The guy with the off grid barn that he bought on eBay was amazing. The old fashioned, aged woodworking shops are a journey back in time. True craftsmanship. Not the commercialized materials that you see today. A dream of mine is to discover woodworking in my own shop/man cave. Currently I'm barely keeping my head above water financially and I feel almost like I'm trapped. I work in the office furniture business as a builder/laborer but the focus is on quantity with most pieces being comprised of compressed particle board held together with cam-locks. Maybe one day I can afford to buy my own time and learn how to do some quality builds. For now I'm just happy when I get a chance to use my wormdrive circular saw. Great video. I hit the like button. Keep up the good....woodwork
I just love Frank’s round shop; it would be such a neat room to have. A place to be alone where the only sounds made are yours. It gives a feeling of bright warmth, safety, and the over all feeling that there are previously untried possibilities available if one just will pause, breathe, and begin again.
Nice work. I was fortunate enough to work with Frank Krausz for a year & had the opportunity to see his home shop. It was an incredible experience even though we went back & forth about whether cutting pins first or tails first was the best method for dovetails. I expected to learn quite a bit, but I never expected his appreciation of my hard-earned skills or that I could actually show him a few tricks as well. Whenever I doubt my course in life or find myself with a low bank account balance, I always remember the words he spoke to me & why I return to my passion in life.
I met Frank at a woodworking show in western Ma. about 15 years ago; he stopped by my woodcarving booth at the closing of the first night. After purchasing one of my carvings he commented to some of the other nearby woodworkers that my dovetails were in his eyes; "perfect", he then graciously invited me to have dinner with him at a local restaurant. WOW, let me say that backwards, WOW. A night to always cherish and remember ! ! ! ~ Myron Hood
I vote for Wayne Henderson. I have met Wayne several times and have visited his shop. The quality of his work is amazing. His guitars are both woodworking masterpieces and wonderful musical instruments. And in addition he is so humble.
Just when I think 'I have seen enough', I discover videos like this and get rejuvenated. This video is a treasure in itself and like fine wine, it's gonna be more precious as time passes by. I really mean it and I am so honoured to have seen it today. Wonderful!
This whole video was sheer heaven for me, a hobby woodturner and furniture maker. It's clear that I have a long way to go to meet the standard of these gentlemen but I'm determined to try and get at least halfway there.
Dang man how do you distinguished the best among the best..? They all tremendous in what they do... Keep it up.. not only the USA but the world need these sovineir gems...
Thanks for this summary tour - I've watched many of your tours over the years. I was particularly touched by seeing "Phillip Lowe’s Furniture Making School" - Phil, sadly is no longer with us and the school has bee closed. He was a wonderful guy and a great teacher. Our woodworking group (Eastern Massachusetts Woodworking Guild) had many classes/demos in his shop over the years and he will be sorely missed. I'm fortunate to have the presentation plane that was given to him for the "Fiske Lecture 2010".
This is awesome, I just turned 30 and I’m currently trying to save money to build my own wood shop, and this video was very inspiring. I’ve been doing woodwork since I was about 15, and now I know for sure this is what I want to do because I love working with my hands and creating works of art.
This video triggered many memories for me and is a welcome journey back in time. Its great seeing that there are still traditional woodworking schools keeping the craft alive. All the craftsman featured, from the younger guys, to the more senior guys, are truly talented.
A brilliant insight to some of the most skilful woodworkers on the planet my favourite from your video is Frank Klaus thank you for showing all of these wood shops
So much retirement goals in these shops. I love it all. Only just started on the journey of making things out of wood at almost 40 years old, but I plan to live to at least 80 years old so I still got most of my life ahead of me to learn from masters like these and the new ones.
I'm just sitting down to watch, and am totally caught off guard by Frank's overflowing generosity. One other thing, being a chronic clutter-bug, the idea of a round shop gives me hope that perhaps, with the right "environment", I could at last be less likely to leave stuff in a corner.
Thanks for the tours. I was shocked when you said we were on the last one, time flies when you're having fun. For the time being, I'll have to remain on my side of the garage. Thanks for showing me some dreams come true!
Each one of those shops were amazing. Not necessarily because of the woodworking shop itself, but because of the talented craftsmen's that were working in those shops. Thanks for sharing...
Wow. For me to spend a day with any of those carpenters in any of those woodshops would truly be a dream come true. That would include you and your shop too. Thanks for a great video.
All the woodworking shops are unique in there creative artwork where gifts become apparent, some to excellent workmanship and others capturing the past. I have bought a fully functional woodworking shop where previous owner ( machinest by trade ) modified & rebuilt various woodworking machines to multiple uses, for example a radial arm saw was converted into wood milling using different routers. Great work & show, May God Bless you all, all glory & thanks go to our creator and our Lord Jesus.
This was such a treat. Well done for taking the time to put this together. I'm REALLY interested in learning more about how these woodworkers organize their shops for efficiency and aesthetics to apply to my own workshop.
Oh what a jaw dropping collection of work shops......really fantastic....I would love to just stand and quietly look Thank you Joshua.....I wish you well....John UK
Joshua I have watched lots of your stuff and most of those in your list of ten....I am mystified with your connection to them as they can be found independently. Are you able to explain please. Best John uk
I haven’t got a favourite. They are all brilliant tradesmen and obviously borne with a mallet, wood chisel or plane in their hand. Out standing craftsman ship coming from all of them 👌
As a Master Toolmaker, I would happily sharpen these guys chisels and planes just to sit in the shop and watch them work. I could lap them down to razors (actually sharper than razors).
Like others, I cant pick just one. They were all amazing!! Thank you for putting this together and sharing. I hope and pray that I will that good at some point in my life.
Oh Man! what a treat it was to visit and meet these amazing Teachers/wood workers/craftsmen and visit their workshop through you so Thank You and as a person who just got into wood working it was enlightening and encouraging so Thank You once again I liked em all but Dawn Williams barn was the most interesting their was some thing magical about this place Thank You Sir .
This guy should be narrating more documentary type programmes. I am super new to woodworking, and I make planters for people during the warmer months. Would love to be schooled by some of these gentlemen. greetings from soggy south wales (uk)
🎉l in love the in shop as t Colonial Williamsburg Va. Ive met many of the wood craftsman and those in the maintenance shopwho keeps all the repairs going. Thanks for this wonderful tour.
Quite intriguing how much bespoke and historical craftsmanship is supportable in your community. This is a much more uncommon thing in Australia, without the depth clearly present where you are. I visited Virginia three years ago, but clearly missed the best bits!
Phil Lowe passed away and the school had to shut down. His work and teaching was truly amazing and everything I've read says he was a heck of a guy too
This was the first of your videos that I've seen. That was great! What a great bunch of Master Craftsmen! I've grown to love the idea of woodworking but know nothing. The idea of becoming 1/2 as good as these men would be amazing! Thanks for sharing!
Very enjoyable look into many different workshops. All insightful and impressive in their own way. I must say I am going to plan a visit to Colonial Williamsburg after watching this video. Thanks! You always do a great job!
Tantalizing appetizers...gotta check out the longer tours. The shops are all pretty fantastic, but My interest in lutherie makes Henderson's shop especially interesting.
2 shops James shop and william browns shop. Shop Size I identify with william browns. Thank you for doing this it was awesome. I'd live to see an episode of wood workers that started later in life...like me. Late 50s but living it.
I enjoyed your past video from Frank Klaus shop, I had watched him do his water tight box at WIA a few years ago and his dove tail demonstrations at shows were epic. Frank and his wife sold that home 2018 and found a smaller home with a lower level for Frank and his tools.

good job
Thank you for sharing these amazing talented craftsmen with us teach us so much .
This is the second time I watch this video. Great people they are. That's civilization. Thanks for making it available.
These Gentlemen are not mere wood workers they are true artists. You are all Masters of trade and we lonely mortals are always in awe of what it takes to in vision your creations.
There's nothing better than a master craftsman who is excited to share what he knows
All of them. Because they are all humble and hard working people. And a proud of America.

Thanks for putting so many workshops in one video. I look forward to watching your full videos.
They were all great. Not just informative, but also Historical.
My vote goes to the hungarian-born woodworker, being myself from Hungary (and also a woodworker). Great channel, learned a lot by watching the videos.
I love Hungary! Such great people there. I'd love to go back someday.

I imagine that love is part of watch all those workshops and people who wants to share what they have done, thank you for your video´s
I loved them all and I loved this Video... I watched this with my first cup of coffee and I find Wood Working so calming... Thank you.
All the woodworking shops are unique and hard to choose which is best. They all have a specific place in creative
I vote for Wayne Henderson. I have met Wayne several times and have visited his shop. The quality of his work is amazing. His guitars are both woodworking masterpieces and wonderful musical instruments. And in addition he is so humble.
My vote would be for Frank Klausz. I had the opportunity to visit his shop and talk with the master of dovetails. Really special.
Great William!
So good to see that the shops exist and flourish. And even better that young folks are learning and practicing these beautiful skills.
Just when I think 'I have seen enough', I discover videos like this and get rejuvenated. This video is a treasure in itself and like fine wine, it's gonna be more precious as time passes by. I really mean it and I am so honoured to have seen it today. Wonderful!

Oh no, I didn't know about Phil. But thank you for letting me know. A true treasure of a man. Hopefully this was a suitable tribute to him?
Hard to choose, But going with Frank Clausz. Thanks for sharing these!
Great choice...and you're welcome Tim!

Glad you liked it!

First channel i’ve ever subscribed to. Looking forward to the deeper dive videos of the shops.

You've got plenty of time Dirk!
what a fantastic piece of history.
I'm just sitting down to watch, and am totally caught off guard by Frank's overflowing generosity.
One other thing, being a chronic clutter-bug, the idea of a round shop gives me hope that perhaps, with the right "environment", I could at last be less likely to leave stuff in a corner.
Ha, ha! I never thought about no corners!
Thanks for the tours. I was shocked when you said we were on the last one, time flies when you're having fun. For the time being, I'll have to remain on my side of the garage. Thanks for showing me some dreams come true!
That chess table William Brown made was the most amazing piece.
Each one of those shops were amazing. Not necessarily because of the woodworking shop itself, but because of the talented craftsmen's that were working in those shops. Thanks for sharing...
Exactly. Thanks for watching!
I truly enjoyed all of the shop tours, there uniqueness was great to their owners. Thank you for bringing this to us.
Simplicity is though the best design. Thanks for a fabulous video.
Wow. For me to spend a day with any of those carpenters in any of those woodshops would truly be a dream come true. That would include you and your shop too. Thanks for a great video.
My favorite was the first - workshop of Frank Klausz. Beautiful and unique!
All the woodworking shops are unique in there creative artwork where gifts become apparent, some to excellent workmanship and others capturing the past. I have bought a fully functional woodworking shop where previous owner ( machinest by trade ) modified & rebuilt various woodworking machines to multiple uses, for example a radial arm saw was converted into wood milling using different routers. Great work & show, May God Bless you all, all glory & thanks go to our creator and our Lord Jesus.
That was an awesome video! Thanks so much... you're like me, you love visiting and interviewing other woodworkers!
I'd be anxious about doing this myself
I'm 16 i just started, months ago thankyou for your inspiring and very good and very helpful videos ☺
Just an amazing video. I like to watch it every night and enjoy to see these masters. thank you for providing this video.
This was such a treat. Well done for taking the time to put this together.
I'm REALLY interested in learning more about how these woodworkers organize their shops for efficiency and aesthetics to apply to my own workshop.
Need a few hours to review this video clip. Amazing amount of time & information to view again and again.
Thank you so much for providing such an enjoyable and extremely interesting video.
Oh what a jaw dropping collection of work shops......really fantastic....I would love to just stand and quietly look
Thank you Joshua.....I wish you well....John UK

Hey John, I lived all over Scotland. Some people I just reached out to meet them, and others I met through other people.
I haven’t got a favourite. They are all brilliant tradesmen and obviously borne with a mallet, wood chisel or plane in their hand. Out standing craftsman ship coming from all of them 👌
As a Master Toolmaker, I would happily sharpen these guys chisels and planes just to sit in the shop and watch them work. I could lap them down to razors (actually sharper than razors).

Awesome. I can't put one above the other. Great video.
my dream to learn wood working in one of those great schools
Great video that can inspire many, I am one of them. Thanks a lot.
You asked for my favorites. There are no favorites they are all excellent and I couldn’t begin to make a choice.
Thank you.
Bob, the crab skiff guy.
that round water tank was really cool!
This collection is exquisite!

Would love to visit each of these shops.
Excellent vidéo thank you!
Can't wait until I retire.. gonna build a master woodshop myself.. love the idea of the Venting the dust out the top.
Go for it Gene! Here's the article so you can see more about the venting: woodandshop.com/james-huggetts-furniture-making-workshop-tour/
Beautiful video...a relief to know such people exist
Very impressive wood working shops and wood workers.
Phil Lowe passed away and the school had to shut down. His work and teaching was truly amazing and everything I've read says he was a heck of a guy too
Man, he looks so agile in this video too. Sad
VERY VERY NICE TOUR THANKS SO MUCH
Truely one of the best video’s I have seen.

Great! Where in Italy do you live?

Thank you, Joshua.

I'm glad you liked it Arve!
I liked the tour of Williams shop
simply beautiful
All great shops but frank gets my vote I cant see enough of his videos!

That was wonderful. Hard to pick a favorite. Thank you.
I like how wooworkers are drawn to nature.

Hi Joshua, greetings from England. Thanks for the wonderful videos.

Fantastic video, really enjoyed watching, thanks for sharing 😁👍
Let’s not forget that GIGANTIC chisel in Frank’s shop.
I enjoyed your past video from Frank Klaus shop, I had watched him do his water tight box at WIA a few years ago and his dove tail demonstrations at shows were epic. Frank and his wife sold that home 2018 and found a smaller home with a lower level for Frank and his tools.
